Netflix seems to have put out a rather peculiar casting call for the next series of Stranger Things.

An ad for ‘an untitled TV series for a major streaming service’ has appeared online, and it is seeking ‘1980’s-Looking People’ aged 17+, particularly ‘males with longer hair styles, and females willing to cut their bangs.’

The location of the job is in Atlanta, Georgia – where most of the first series of Stranger Things was shot. And then there’s that rather unsubtle hair clue…

Seeing as Millie Bobby Brown shaved her head for the role of Eleven in series one, we’re wondering whether there will be more characters like her in the next series, if actresses have to be ‘willing’ to part with their hair.

Of course it might not be for the next series of Stranger Things at all – but it sure sounds likely.

Executive producer Dan Cohen has referred to the next series as a ‘sequel’, saying: ‘We want a sequel that feels like it’s bigger and badder and darker, while answering more of the questions and getting deeper into what’s going on.

‘[The Duffer Brothers] want it to be that great sequel that is satisfying and yet expands the world,’ he added.
